Yoshi and the Mysterious Book<\/a> hits store shelves in just a couple of days, but in true Nintendo fashion, the company has not explicitly revealed who actually developed the ruddy thing.<\/p>\n

So we’ll do it instead \u2013 how’s that?<\/p>\n

It shouldn’t come as a huge surprise to learn that Mysterious Book was developed by none other than Good-Feel<\/strong>. The Japanese studio has maintained a close relationship with Nintendo since the release of Wario Land: Shake It!<\/a> back in 2008 for the Wii, and that doesn’t seem to be waning anytime soon.<\/p>\n

It’s since been solely responsible for the Yoshi games, having previously worked on Yoshi’s Woolly World<\/a>, its 3DS port Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World<\/a>, and Yoshi’s Crafted World<\/a>. Kirby’s Epic Yarn<\/a> can also be viewed as a precursor of sorts to the Yoshi titles. Also, how many times do you think we can say ‘Yoshi’ in a single paragraph? One more..? Yoshi!<\/em><\/p>\n

Our review for Mysterious Book is available right now if you’d like to check it out. We ultimately awarded it a score of 6\/10, stating “There’s a lot of fun to be had in discovering the many creatures hidden within Mr. E’s pages, though it also suffers from a repetitive structure that doesn’t evolve or provide any sense of meaningful challenge”.<\/p>\n
